CULTURE. — Sow as early as the ground can be 

 worked, and again every ten days or two weeks in 

 succession. They can be sown as late as the 20th of 

 August for the last sowing, using Extra Earlies. 

 Sow in rows about 4 feet apart and 1 inch apart 

 in the row and 3 to 4 inches deep. 



EXTRA-EARLY ALASKA— The earliest blue 

 pea. The dark green color of the pods makes it 

 extremely desirable, as it can be carried long dis- 



tances without losing color, which quality, com- 

 bined with its earliness and uniformity of ripening, 

 makes it a most desirable pea for market gardeners. 

 Height 2 feet. Pt. 25c, qt. 50c, pk. $2.50, bu. $8.00. 



LITTLE MARVEL— As regards Little Marvel 

 peas, this variety we can recommend as being one 

 of the very best short-vine peas introduced The 

 vines are about a foot high, very stocky, and the 

 pods are large and well filled with large peas of ex- 

 cellent quality. We consider this variety far su- 

 perior to American Wonder or Nott's Excelsior, 

 and when they are better known they will be in 

 great demand. Pt. 25c, qt. 50c, pk. $3.00, bu. $10.00. 



NOTT'S EXCELSIOR— One of the best early 

 dwarf peas It combines the good qualities of the 

 American Wonder and Premium Gem Peas. Pt. 25c 

 qt. 50c, pk. $3.00, bu. $10.00. 



LONG-PODDED ALASKA — New, vigorous, 

 handsome, long-podded, delicious flavored Alaska 

 Pea. Bound to become extremely popular, for it 

 has all the good qualities of famous Extra Early 

 .Alaska Pea, and in addition, it has a well-filled pod 

 almost twice as long which will fill the basket in 

 one-half the time, and while it is not a distinctly 

 sugar pea, yet it has a much sweeter flavor than 

 the Alaska. It is an abundant yielder. Pt. 25c, qt. 

 50c, pk. $2.50, bu. $8.50. 



GRADUS, or PROSPERITY— Probably the best 

 extra-early pea yet introduced. Only 2 or 3 days 

 later than Alaska, and a wrinkled pea of excellent 

 quality. Pt. 25c, qt. 50c, pk. $2.75, bu. $9.50. 



EXTRA-EARLY PILOT— The pods and peas 

 are nearly as large as those of Gradus, and are 

 produced three days earlier. They can be planted 

 much earlier than Gradus, and while not wrinkled, 

 the peas are almost equal in flavor. Three feet 

 high. Pt. 25c, qt. 50c, pk. $2.75, bu. $10.00.
